I started out with a pile of J Crew sweaters from Goodwill. I felted these to within an inch of their lives and then cut the sleeves off. Use the sleeves to cut out your applique designs. I used the serger to sew the cusion shape. You have to be careful with that because of the stretch. It can give you a wonky seam. We’ll sit on these awhile and then I’ll tweek the wonkiness.
